Checklist for Diamond DA42 – GFC700 Edition #: 18 Edition date: 15.12.2017 Please observe: The file you are receiving hereby combines all three sections of the checklist: Normal Checklist, Emergency Checklist and Abnormal Checklist. All pages of a new edition will have the same new “edition #” and “edition date”, even if only one page was amended and all other pages still have the same, unchanged content. Therefore the “List of Effective Pages” (LEP) is provided. It is here where you can see whether a particular page was amended. Pages which have been amended by a new edition will be marked yellow. For all other pages you will see which original “edition #” (and of course any higher “edition #”) is still valid. Note:
The system of assigning “Edition #” is as follows: • if the revision affects all types, a new edition # (without a decimal figure) will be
assigned to all of the checklists • if the revision does not affect all types, the affected checklists will get subsequent
“decimal figures” until a major revision affecting all checklists is issued. Have a lot of nice flights and happy landings! Peter Schmidleitner Comments explaining Edition # 18 are on page 2 of this document Checklist DA42 GFC700 - LEP

NORMAL CHECKLIST
Edition # 18 GFC700 Does not replace the Airplane Flight Manual
Diamond DA42 Twin Star GFC700
This checklist is compiled according the guidelines of GAMA Specification No.1, SECTION 3, para 3.5, SECTION 3A, para 3A.5 and SECTION 4, para 4.5. The “Amplified Normal Procedures”, „Amplified Emergency Procedures“ and „Amplified Abnormal Procedures“ according GAMA Specification No. 1 are in the DA42 Airplane Flight Manual Chapters 4A, 3 and 4B. This checklist is a Recommended Operator Checklist and for reference only. It is not a substitute for and does not supersede the current approved Airplane Flight Manual or any of its supplements or parts thereof, or any training or procedures required by any regulatory or advisory bodies. This checklist may not contain all procedures shown in the Airplane Flight Manual. For a comprehensive listing of all procedures consult the Airplane Flight Manual. Use of the checklist is at the user's sole risk and discretion. Any possible liability of Diamond Aircraft for any damages, injury or death resulting from its use is excluded. All such terms and conditions shall be deemed to be explicitly accepted in full by using the checklist. If you do not understand, or if you disagree with, any of the above terms and conditions and in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of these terms and conditions any use of the checklist is not permitted. Use of the electronic checklist (if available): Before using the electronic checklist on the G1000 the following sections have to be completed using this paper checklist: • Preflight interior + exterior • Preflight exterior • Check before engine start items 1 to 22 (may be completed by heart). This checklist also serves as a back up for the electronic checklist in case the G1000 MFD is not available.

ENGINE INSTRUMENT INDICATIONS OUTSIDE OF GREEN RANGE
COOLANT temperature high Refer to Emergency Checklist page 4, “L/R ENG TEMP”
COOLANT temperature low Remark: During low power descent from high altitude coolant temperature may decrease. Consider increasing power.
Check G1000 for LOW COOLANT LVL caution light If “LOW COOLANT LVL caution light” ON
⇒ Reduce power on affected engine ⇒ Expect loss of coolant fluid ⇒ Be prepared for an engine failure
OIL temperature high Refer to Emergency Checklist page 3, “L/R OIL TEMP”
OIL temperature low Increase power Reduce airspeed
OIL pressure high Check oil temperature and coolant temperature
If within green range ⇒ Oil pressure indication may be faulty; watch temperatures
If outside of green range ⇒ Reduce power on affected engine; ⇒ Be prepared for an engine faiure;
Land at nearest suitable airfield
OIL pressure low Refer to Emergency Checklist page 3, “L/R OIL PRES”
FUEL temperature high Refer to Emergency Checklist page 4, “L/R FUEL TEMP”
FUEL temperature low (JET Fuel operation) Monitor fuel temperature
If fuel temperature decreases to red range (< 30°C): ⇒ Increase power on affected engine ⇒ Reduce airspeed
If not returning to yellow range: ⇒ Land at nearest suitable airfield
FUEL temperature low (Diesel Fuel operation) Increase power on affected engine Reduce airspeed
If not returning to green range:

DA42 Twin Star GFC700 ABNORMAL PROCEDURES
VOLTS low On ground:
⇒ Check alternators ON ⇒ Check circuit breakers
If LOW VOLTS CAUTION still indicated on the G1000: ⇒ Discontinue operation; terminate flight preparation
In flight: ⇒ Check alternators ON ⇒ Check circuit breakers ⇒ Switch off unnecessary electrical equipment
If LOW VOLTS CAUTION still indicated on the G1000: ⇒ Apply L/R ALTN FAIL caution procedure, page 15
RPM high Reduce power on affected engine Keep RPM in green range with appropriate power lever setting
If problem not solved: ⇒ Refer to Emergency Checklist page 9 “RPM overspeed” ⇒ Land at nearest suitable airfield
OTHER ABNORMAL SITUATIONS
Hydraulic pump: failure or continuous operation Check gear indication lights Prepare for manual landing gear extension
L/R Auxiliary fuel XFER FAIL Both x-fer pumps OFF Check fuel quantity Use X-feed to keep main tank fuel unbalance within 1 USG Switch remaining x-fer pump ON Use X-feed to keep main tank fuel unbalance within 1 USG Amend flight plan to allow for reduced amount of available fuel

Intercept Procedures Typically two fighters approach from the stern -- you may only see one Fighter rocks wings to signal intercept Fighter responsible for safe separation
Your Actions Remain predictable – Altitude, heading, airspeed, don’t descend Acknowledge fighter with wing rock Talk to ATC Talk to fighter on 121.5
Post Intercept Comply with instructions Land where directed
Interceptor Signals Meaning
Fighter slow turn to desired heading FLY THIS WAY
Fighter abrupt turn across nose to desired heading and may dispense flares
WARNING: TURN NOW (DIRECTION OF FIGHTER)
Fighter circles airport, lowers landing gear, overflies runway in direction of landing LAND HERE
FLY THIS WAY
